WWWWolf's Scriptorium

Welcome to my GIMP
Script-Fu/Perl-Fu/Python-Fu/Ruby-Fu script repository - one of the
oldest interesting pages on my homepage, yet also somehow currently
one of the least interesting pages. If you think the title graphic
looks a little bit dated, welcome to the club! Once upon a time, I
wrote some scripts for the GIMP. Unfortunately, my interest on
developing scripts sort of waned. I remain a quite enthusiastic user
of the program, however!

This page has some of the scripts that produce various effects with
GIMP. Script-Fu is GIMP’s automation facility that makes it pretty
easy to automate complex operations, though the downside is that it’s
based on Scheme, which may be vaguely obscure to many
programmers. Perl-Fu, Python-Fu and Ruby-Fu use Perl, Python and Ruby
respectively, and these languages might be more familiar to many
programmers these days, but these facilities may also require separate
GIMP extension installations (for example, some versions of GIMP for
Windows/MacOSX ship with Python-Fu, some don’t). (Just to give a hint
of what kind of problems this presents: as of writing this paragraph,
I wasn’t even aware that Ruby-Fu actually existed nowadays. =)

Scripts that work with the current version of GIMP (2.x)

Bloom

(Download)
Adds a Light Bloom effect to the image, simulating overexposing
brighter areas of the image and bleeding the light to he darker
areas. Uses Script-Fu so it only requires stock GIMP. (GitHub also has
Perl-Fu and Python-Fu versions of this script)

Ancient scripts (GIMP 1.x)

These scripts haven’t yet been ported to GIMP 2.x, though I hope at least some of them will be. These are available through the GitHub repository, mostly for historical research purposes, though that’s also where the new scripts live.

Rough Text: Produces text that looks a bit like it was written on an
old dirty typewriter, with completely random inksplatter as opposed
to regular irregularities you usually see in “typewriter fonts”. (I
kind of like this.) Based on an old GIMP 0.5x tutorial by
Zach “Xach” Beane.

Granite Button: My first attempt at making anything kewl. Do not
want.
